From the Spirit of Scouting to the Service of Humanity: Dr. Kuldeep Malik Honoured at NCC Achievers Awards 2026
Some Journeys Never Truly End; They Simply Find a New Purpose
New Delhi [India], July 17: For Dr. Kuldeep Malik, the values of discipline, leadership, and selfless service were nurtured through his journey as a Rashtrapati Scout with The Bharat Scouts & Guides. Those ideals did not remain a part of his youth; they became the foundation of a distinguished medical career devoted to restoring mobility, relieving pain, and transforming lives.
It was this remarkable journey that was celebrated at the NCC Achievers Awards 2026, organised by the NCC Alumni Club on the occasion of the NCC Foundation Day at Pratap Hall, DG NCC Camp, Delhi Cantt., New Delhi.
The prestigious ceremony was graced by Lt. Gen. Virendra Vats, YSM, SM, VSM, Director General, NCC, as the Chief Guest. The event was attended by distinguished Guests of Honour, including Rear Admiral Ashish Bhargava, Maj. Gen. Vikas Bhardwaj, VSM, Maj. Gen. (Dr.) J. K. S. Parihar, SM, VSM & Bar, and Mr. S. K. Sharma, National President of the Association of Industries & Institutions (AOII).
Held under the leadership of Mr. Girish Nishana, President, NCC Alumni Club, and Dr. Ujjwal Chugh (A Spiritual Preceptor & Visionary), Senior Vice President, NCC Alumni Club, the ceremony brought together accomplished professionals from across the country whose work reflects the enduring spirit of service, leadership, and nation-building.
Among those honoured was Dr. Kuldeep Malik, Director – Orthopaedics & Joint Replacement, Max Hospital, Shalimar Bagh. Over the years, he has earned immense respect for his contribution to orthopaedic care, helping patients regain not just movement but also confidence, independence, and a renewed quality of life.
While medical excellence defines his profession, service defines his purpose.
The honour bestowed upon Dr. Malik was not merely in recognition of his clinical achievements but also of the values he has continued to uphold throughout his professional journey.
His story reflects how the discipline, integrity, and spirit of service nurtured through Scouting can shape individuals who go on to make meaningful contributions to society through their chosen professions.

Every successful treatment represents far more than a medical procedure; it restores hope, dignity, and the confidence to live life without limitations. Through years of dedicated service in orthopaedics and joint replacement, Dr. Kuldeep Malik has positively impacted countless lives, demonstrating that healing is one of the highest forms of service to society.
